UNIT 2:  RESEARCH METHODS

Picture
A wide range of research methods are used in psychology. These methods vary by the sources of information that are drawn on, how that information is sampled, and the types of instruments that are used in data collection. 

​
Methods also vary by whether they collect qualitative data, quantitative data or both.

Descriptive or Correlational Research Methods
  • Case studies, surveys, naturalistic observation, and laboratory observation are examples of descriptive or correlational research methods. ...
  • Remember: correlation is not the same as causation.

CRASH COURSE VIDEO
Viewing Highly Suggested

​​​Let's be real, okay?  CRASH COURSE videos are both interesting in presentation, but "chock full of knowledge" you should have learned on the topic in psychology.  These are under 15-minutes, but offer a great "review" & "reinforcement" of the material.  Review Episode "Learning:  How to Train the Brain"
